    I like Buttner, limited enough but worked very hard when he did get a chance. Not good enough to be a regular for a top side like United and hopefully he finds a club where he can achieve that.

    Fergie really did make some poor signings in the last few years he was at the club. Hoping to see Shaw signing announced when England return home after the group stage is over :pac:

    Kags hasnt come good. Cant blame Fergie for it though as I thought he'd be great too.

    Smalling is awful. Not up to the standard.

    Jones looks like he may reach his potential but hes taking his time doing so.

    Powell remains to be seen

    I didn't say he only made bad signings. Only ones from the above who have been a clear success and improved the team imo are De Gea RVP and Chico. I'm talking about Ashley Young, Buttner, Zaha etc.

    Fergies gone now anyway so its a moot point

    I had a few responses to your various points written out, but I'm not going to bother. If you're still defending Evra at this stage and using a game against Honduras as proof of anything then I don't believe you are serious about the discussion.

    Wow.

    Honestly never thought I'd see the day. :pac:

    Buttner was simply not United standard, we wish him well..

    No russia obviously.....:D

    Bebe had a lot more to prove than Buttner and a move to Benfica looks likely, Beba excelled in a poor team.

    *awaits backlash*

    Looking forward to seeing the Dutch game, be interesting to see how they perform now once the world is watching after the Spanish game last week.

    As many have said I am torn too. On the one hand I wish Van Gaal does well but on the other hand the sooner the Dutch go out the sooner he can start concentrating on the United job after taking a few weeks holiers.

    Having a WC winning manager would be awesome though!

    Holland starting with the same team today as they did against Spain.
    Holland: Cillessen, Martins Indi, Vlaar, De Vrij, Janmaat, De Jong, Blind, de Guzman, Sneijder, van Persie, Robben. Subs: Vorm, Verhaegh, Veltman, Kongolo, Kuyt, Clasie, Lens, Fer, Huntelaar, Wijnaldum, Depay, Krul.

    LVG again

    Cant wait to see him the dug out next season. If he gets us any where playing this Dutch team, it will be a joy to watch my team again after years of muck

    G'wan LVG keep it up!

    I know we were linked with him before the tournament (along with pretty much every Dutch player) but Memphis Depay looked excellent there against the Aussies. Serious pace and trickery on the wing. Something we've lacked for a while.

    What about Ashey You......oh sorry.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 111 ✭✭Unsung Hero


    RVP played very well today and a certain rest from the suspension.

    Depay has been linked and did looked skillful and quick. Strong built lad already.

    Sneijder can stay in Turkey. Sloppy today.

    Really liked the look of him . All the danger camr down his wing in the 2nd half. Our wingers are so one dimensional compared to what else is out there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,277 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    Depay will be on everyone's radar now so ya thats us out...... Ha.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,071 ✭✭✭user2011


    From the betting forum, Ronaldo's WC could be over. His knee seems to be causing him a lot of bother. :( if true, could well be his last shot at the WC.

    Always had decent sides but lacked in the striking department.

    Chile fans causing mayhem at the Maracana stadium.

    LOOK AT THIS :eek:
